I really don't have a favorite, I try to cook at least 4 new dinners a week ( I find new recipes on pinterest). I like to cook casseroles, veggies in all different ways, basically anything I can find that looks good and is made of fresh ingedients. I recently made Cauliflower tots and now the kids want them to replce tator tots the next time I make breakfast casserole. My family loves to make new things and create new recipes.

Quoting amonkeymom:

Welcome to the group April, it's nice to meet you! What is your favorite thing to cook/bake?

Quoting 4HMomto3:

Hi, new here. I'm April.

What's on your mind today? ~ Not a whole lot, just killing time till the kids get out of school.

What kind of home do you live in? ~ Its a Manufactored Home on a few acres in the woods. Who do you share your home with? ~ My husband, 3 kids, dog, 2 cats ,some chickens, and some ducks.

What is your favorite kitchen appliance? ~ The stove, I mostly cook from scratch and use the stove/oven most of the time.

I found the recipe on pinterest :) I used dried parsley instead of the fresh and onion powder, I didnt have any minced onion.

Cauliflower Tots

If you need a way to get your family to eat more vegetables, give these a try. These kid-friendly cauliflower tots are so good, they won't realize they are eating cauliflower. They are great as a side dish and are easy to make.

Last year I fell in love with zucchini tots, and since adapted the recipe using cauliflower instead during the colder months when zucchini isn't in season. I also had issues with them sticking to my mini muffin pan, and found making them on a non-stick baking sheet the perfect solution. My older daughter loves these, but my toddler still prefers to eat her vegetables raw (go figure!). I plan in trying these with broccoli next, will let you know how they turn out!Cauliflower TotsSkinnytaste.comServings: 4 • Size: 8 tots • Old Points: 3 pts • Points+: 4 ptsCalories: 148 • Fat: 5 g • Protein: 10 g • Carb: 16 g • Fiber: 3 g • Sugar: 2 g Sodium: 397 mg (without salt) • Cholesterol: 47 mg

Those sound great! I bet my daughter would enjoy them, and she hates cauliflower.
